Merry Everything!


Today at Stampotique Designer's Challenge Vicki is our hostess and she has proven to give us quite the challenge.  Here is what she says:

Before you know it, Christmas will be upon us! How many of you have started your Christmas cards?  I'm curious, do you make ALL of your Christmas cards, none of them or a bit of both? 

This week I'm challenging the team to make a non traditional Christmas card. The main rule is 

NO RED OR GREEN

I can't wait to see all of the great ideas!

Pull out your Stampotique Stamps as this is a Stampotique only week! 

Play along with this week's challenge for your chance to win a $30 Stampotique Gift Certificate, be sure to link in your entries by 5 p.m. EST on 12/13/11 by using the InLinkz here. Please no back linking to previous posts and only one entry per person.


I pulled out one of Kira's new images and used that with a color combo I do not use frequently, but I love, plum and aqua.

Hope you will join us at Stampotique Designer's Challenge this week!

I love the cute little monster and the color combo is FAB! How cool to have that background texture as a stamp, I have to sponge through punchinella (sequin waste) and it sure would be easier to be able to stamp that effect, I love it! Great card and the non-typical colors for a merry holiday card are just great!
